Baseball fans were stunned during Game 5 of the World Series Sunday night when an Astros fan shockingly ripped the ball — hit by Los Angeles Dodgers’ Yasiel Puig in the 9th inning — out of a woman’s hand to throw it back onto the field.

Even more shocking, that wasn’t just any home run ball: It’s the one that set the record for most homers hit in a World Series.

According to the Houston Chronicle, the man, and the woman who he yanked the ball from, are in-laws.

For what it’s worth, Kirk’s reasoning seemed to have worked: The Astros pulled out the win in a nail-biter 13-12 extra-inning game. The Astros now lead the series 3-2.

7. Staind singer Anthony Lewis botched the words to the anthem so badly for Game 5 on Oct. 27 that he later offered an apology. His nasal delivery didn't win over many folks, either.

6. Veteran Chicago crooner John Vincent was a bit pitchy in his rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" to open Game 4 on Oct. 29 -- not only did he (oddly) take a breath in the middle of the word "gallantly" but he seemed to struggle with the final phrase.

5. To open Game 6 on Nov. 1, young country star Hunter Hayes gave a vibrato- and run-filled performance that was savaged on social media. One Twitter critic wrote that he "sounds like a pillowcase full of kittens being slung against a curb."

4. The country music duo LoCash achieved some nice harmonizing to open Game 2 on Oct. 26 in Cleveland -- though they seemed a little hesitant on the high note.

3. Chicago native and Fall Out Boy singer Patrick Stump delivered a quick but surprisingly strong performance at Game 3, hitting all the tricky notes and keeping the vocal flourishes in check.

2. "Fight Song" singer Rachel Platten inserted some pregnant pauses and offbeat phrasing choices in an otherwise solid rendition to open Game 1 on Oct. 25.

1. Keeping it classy, the string section of the world-renowned Cleveland Orchestra played the anthem for the final game of the series on Nov. 2. No missed word, no over-the-top vocal runs. Nice and simple.
